Spring Training is OVER!!!

Most WONDERFUL. Am I ready for some baseball? Heck yeah! My recent poems have been baseball oriented. Here are a couple:

April 1st

Sunshine over the stadium
blue skies touched
with white clouds
The air still chilled
but the grass so green
ready for the run
of white shoes
as the ball flies over
sometimes over the fence
sometimes into the leather
Or maybe never leaving the diamond
passing the plate
with such force and heat
The lumber swinging and missing
that oh so sweet curve

April 2nd

let me smell the freshly cut grass
let me hear the crack of the bat
let me watch that ball
sail over the fence
let me jump and cheer
with every run scored
with every strike called
let me breath the game
let me feel the game
let me dream the game

Tomorrow is our first suite game. I’m PRAYING that it doesn’t rain at game time. I want to be able to enjoy the first game without rain. Of course, we will be in our suite, so at least we won’t get wet. 😆

Part of me feels so bad that I haven’t kept up with this blog. I should write more in here since I can keep a better back up of this. But ah well, such is life. I love doing LiveJournal though. It’s so much fun getting all that feedback from the friends. 🙂
